How to Stretch Your Shoes Out For the Perfect Fit

Shoes are really important for a woman. We always go shopping for clothes and shoes. Sometimes it is the last pair of a specific pair of shoes that the department store has. It might be a half size to small or too big, but we always say it fits well. After we purchase it and take it home is when we realize it might have been a little to snug at our fingers tips or towards the middle. We get so disappointed that we decide not to wear them for a while.

We always look forward to that day when we will be able to fit them. There is a couple of ways to make your shoes bigger. We can take them to a shoe repair shop. But, if you take them there just know that you will be paying quite a few dollars. Instead of that being your first resort we will show you one way to expand your snug shoes.

This method is really easy and anyone can do it. Some of the materials you will need are a plastic sandwich bag, water and your shoe. These materials are really important to have in order to achieve your goal. Make sure that putting your shoes in the freezer is ok with your family. This process will help your shoes expand so they won’t be tight anymore. Also, it will help your shoes grow like half a size or even one whole size.

To get started we will need to grab our plastic bag and fill it with water. Make sure you take all the air out of your bag and zip it. Hold the bag up and make sure it’s not licking as you do not want your shoe to get all wet. Grab your shoe and place the Ziploc bag in the shoe. Make sure that the Ziploc bag is all the way in the front of the shoe. After you insure it is place the shoe in the freezer. Let the shoe in the freezer overnight and take it out in the morning. When you take the shoe out let it sit for about 30 minutes for the ice to melt or as soon as you can take the bag out.

Now that you have finished, try your shoe on and it should fit perfectly. If it is still a little too tight repeat the steps again till you feel your shoe comfortable. Remember to check the bag for any drips and secure it tightly. This process only takes about ten minutes and it is not hard at all. Enjoy your new comfortable shoes. Till next time!
